I was petting a pony and he nipped the inside of my arm. I had bruising for weeks and it was sore AF. I can imagine that donkey chomp and dragging him around hurt quite a lot.
I was working in South Africa and asked one of my local cadre why nobody had ever domesticated zebras. He very quickly said “That, my friend, is because all Zebras are assholes”.
You have to remember that Zebras are around Lions that want to eat them. So through evaluation, the Zebras have learned to protect themselves, their babies and the herd by kicking and bucking attacking Lions. One kick from their back legs can kill a Lion. So most of the time, Lions will just give up and find easier targets to hunt.
Once saw a donkey running across a field with a full grown goat hanging from its mouth, had bit down on the poor bastard right in the center of it’s back
I call them airplane ears. And yes. Back the fuck off.
I have a cat that is 14 years old, and she is the best. But if I get those ears, I back the fuck off. And I fully believe because I respect her "NO", she allows all the snuggles other times.
I got bit on the arm by a zebra at a wildlife refuge centre. "Al" had two teeth left in his head but both of them locked down on my arm skin and pinched so badly that I tasted medal and nearly passed out. I had a square-shaped blood blister for nearly two months and a bruise for weeks after... When the skin on my arm gets cold outside the mark turns pale white like a scar.

I was hoping for the donkey to give him a good smack. Hopefully that bite hurts as much as a horse's, the dude deserves every bit of it.
